2010 SUMMARY ANNUAL REPORT
Delivering Value
Certain disclosures in this Summary Annual Report may be considered “forward-looking” statements. These are made pursuant to “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The “Cautionary Statement” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis in Appendix B of ConocoPhillips’ 2011 Proxy Statement should be read in conjunction with such statements.
“ConocoPhillips,” “the company,” “we,” “us” and “our” are used interchangeably in this report to refer to the businesses of ConocoPhillips and its consolidated subsidiaries.
Definition of resources: ConocoPhillips uses the term “resources” in this document. The company estimates its total resources based on a system developed by the Society of Petroleum Engineers that classifies recoverable hydrocarbons into six categories based on their status at the time of reporting. Three (proved, probable and possible reserves) are deemed commercial, and three others are deemed noncommercial or contingent. The company’s resource estimate encompasses volumes associated with all six categories.

Letter to Shareholders
Since the fall of 2009, we have pursued a multi-year plan to take decisive actions that deliver increased value for our owners. These include building upon our strong operational, safety and environmental
performance, increasing distributions to shareholders,
adjusting our portfolio, and renewing our commitment to
strategic, financial and operational discipline.
We made significant progress in 2010, highlighted by
a 10 percent increase in our quarterly dividend rate,
realization of $15.4 billion in proceeds from selective
asset divestments that included most of our LUKOIL
holdings, an 18 percent decrease in debt to $23.6 billion,
and an increase in our year-end cash and short-term
investments balance to $10.4 billion. We also met our key
operational targets, while recording our safest year since
the inception of ConocoPhillips in 2002 and increasing
annual earnings to $11.4 billion.
This performance delivered significant value to our
shareholders, as ConocoPhillips’ total shareholder return
for the year of 39 percent was highest among our industry
peer group. We have continued our commitment to increase
shareholder distributions in 2011, announcing a 20 percent
increase in the quarterly dividend rate and an additional
$10 billion share repurchase program.
These achievements occurred in a market still gradually
recovering from the recent global economic downturn.
Liquids price realizations increased during 2010, but North
American natural gas prices remained impacted by weak
demand and rising supply, while surplus global refining
capacity allowed only a partial recovery in refining margins.
Through our investments, we are continuing to increase our
emphasis on exploration and production, to which 86 percent
of our capital program was dedicated during 2010, with
89 percent planned for 2011.

DELIVERING ON OUR COMMITMENTS
Progress is well under way on our decisive multi-year actions
intended to enable ConocoPhillips to deliver long-term
value and compete effectively throughout all market cycles.
Specifically:
• Sell $10 billion in non-core assets over two years –
We completed $7.1 billion in asset sales during 2010,
including divestiture of our 9 percent interest in Syncrude for
$4.6 billion, and sales of smaller ventures and lower-returning
assets. The sales will not materially impact future reserves
and production growth. We anticipate at least $3 billion in
additional sales during 2011.
• Sell our LUKOIL stock – We expanded our initial plan
and determined to divest all of our 20 percent ownership
in LUKOIL stock, then utilize the proceeds to fund our own
development opportunities and repurchase our stock. We
completed the sale of our LUKOIL investment by early 2011,
yielding $9.5 billion in total proceeds, including $8.3 billion
realized during 2010.
• Reduce debt and improve financial flexibility –
We retired $5.1 billion in debt during the year, lowering
remaining debt to $23.6 billion and the debt-to-capital ratio
to 25 percent, which is within our target range. We ended
2010 with $10.4 billion in cash and short-term investments,
most of which we will use for share repurchases, with small,
selective asset acquisitions also possible.
• Increase shareholder distributions – Our efforts
to deliver value to shareholders during 2010 included a
10 percent increase in our quarterly dividend rate. This was
the eighth consecutive annual increase since the company’s
inception in 2002, yielding a compounded annual dividend
growth rate of 13.5 percent over this period. In addition to
paying $3.2 billion in dividends, we repurchased 65 million
shares of our stock for $3.9 billion, consistent with plans to
increase key metrics on a per-share basis.
• Improve capital efficiency – Achievement of these
initiatives, combined with higher margins and a disciplined
capital investment program, improved our return on capital
employed to 10 percent during 2010. Spending for our capital
program declined 11 percent to $10.7 billion, which was
primarily allocated to our Exploration and Production (E&P)
business. In response to the improved energy market, we
plan a $13.5 billion capital program for 2011.
OPERATIONAL ACHIEVEMENTS
E&P recorded several key accomplishments that will facilitate
future value accretion and growth. Among them were record
safety performance, oil and gas production volumes that
met operating targets, and replacement of 138 percent of
production with proved reserve additions on an organic basis
at competitive finding and development costs.
To expand our opportunities in North America, we added
acreage in liquids-rich unconventional shale drilling
trends. In the Canadian oil sands, volumes increased as
work continued on several large expansion projects. We
broadened our presence in the growing global liquefied
natural gas (LNG) market through startup of the Qatargas 3
project in 2010. In addition, ongoing development of the
major Australia Pacific LNG (APLNG) venture continues. In
February 2011, APLNG entered into a non-binding heads
of agreement to supply up to 4.3 million tonnes annually of
LNG for 20 years to Sinopec, a major customer in China, and
for Sinopec to subscribe for a 15 percent equity interest in
the APLNG venture.
Looking forward, we expect to organically replace
reserves and grow long-term production by developing
existing opportunities available in our asset portfolio and
increasing emphasis on exploration. Our 2011 plans include
continued development of major projects, exploitation of
unconventional shale resources in the United States, Canada
and elsewhere, and wildcat drilling and appraisal of earlier
discoveries from our exploration portfolio.
“ We expect to organically replace reserves and grow long-term production by developing existing opportunities available in our asset portfolio and increasing emphasis on exploration.”

Our Refining and Marketing business also recorded its
safest year ever, with favorable capacity utilization that met
targets despite a difficult global operating environment.
We expect continued progress on the Wood River Refinery’s
coker and refinery expansion project, enabling increased
bitumen processing capacity in late 2011, thus accom-
modating E&P’s rising Canadian oil sands production.
Consistent with plans to reduce our exposure to refining
margins, we decided not to proceed with proposed Yanbu
and Wilhelmshaven refinery investments.
Our chemicals and midstream joint ventures entered their
second decade with strong financial results in growing markets.
OUR COMMUNITIES AND PEOPLE
We were saddened by the tragic oil spill in the deepwater
Gulf of Mexico this past summer, and assisted in response
efforts. We firmly believe deepwater drilling can be done
safely and in an environmentally sensitive manner. In order
to enhance the industry’s ability to meet the highest
standards, we joined with three other major energy
companies to form the Marine Well Containment Company,
which is designing and building equipment to supplement
emergency response capabilities.
Additionally, we are urging the U.S. government to ensure
regulation of our industry is reasonable and cost-effective.
We also continue calling for enactment of a comprehensive
national energy policy to enhance supply availability, provide
a mandatory legislative framework to address greenhouse
gas emissions, and encourage greater energy efficiency and
environmental care.

As part of our corporate culture, we strive to improve the
well-being of the communities in which we operate by making
charitable contributions to organizations that provide vital
community services. During 2010 we also broadened our
matching gift program, inspiring increased contributions and
greater volunteerism by ConocoPhillips employees and retirees.
To help ensure ongoing progress, we have implemented
programs to enhance the professional skills of our
employees, including executive leadership development and
succession planning overseen by our board of directors.
As we look ahead to 2011 and the years beyond, we believe
ConocoPhillips is better prepared to compete and prosper
during market upturns, as well as times of uncertainty. We are
excited about the emerging opportunities we see.
We have demonstrated our ability to successfully adapt our
traditional, proven business strategies to new realities, and to
harness the creativity and commitment of our employees. We
deeply appreciate their ongoing contributions, as well as the
trust shareholders exhibited in ConocoPhillips during 2010.
